Lakers @ Suns Tuesday game thread 11-22-2022

Welll, that is the best thing that could possibly happen in this game: Ayton decides he cares about outplaying another big man.

Too bad I can only Like once. I would like to like this 100 times.

Beat LA! Because why not?

Who cares about Ayton, injuries, trades, and what not. Tonight we beat LA.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Agreed but I think his point was that for those three games, that's what a max player should look like. And he's right, for three games AD has been a superstar and played at the level we would all like to see from Ayton. Not that AD's recent play wipes out his significant injury history.

I’d be happy with 66% of that from Ayton. Something he’s never done for a season.

 

[Muggz]

AD still has to make it from the Bus to the court without pulling something.

 

[Bufalay]

I’d be happy with 66% of that from Ayton. Something he’s never done for a season.

To emphasize this point, Davis averaged 28 ppg for two straight seasons. Ayton has scored more than 28 points 4 times in his career.

That sounds like what everyone said about T.J. Warren!

How is that guy still collecting checks?

Suns are shooting 20% from the field and trail by 2. Lakers lead 7-5.

 

[Proximo]

Suns can’t make a shot. Did chuck curse them?

Jesus Christ

He’s scored 28 points… 4 times… in over 4 SEASONS.

Suns can’t make a shot. Did chuck curse them?

Think we’re just settling for jumpers. Making it too easy on them defensively. Gotta move the ball and drive and kick. Book is just shooting right now trying to play 1 on 1. Let’s feed DA

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton has played good defense so far.

 

[Mainstreet]

Bridges (3-3) for 8 points scored early for the Suns until Booker got going.

 

[Mainstreet]

Davis has effected the Suns shooting inside.

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 1st quarter:

Suns 26 - Lakers 22

 

[DJ Tabooh]

Not a bad quarter. Thought Book was on the ball a bit too much but I’m glad he found his jumper late in the quarter. Defense is solid. Just move the ball on offense and keep making the right play and we’ll start to pull away.

 

[Mainstreet]

Lee with the three.

 

[Mainstreet]

Biz challenges almost every shot inside.

 

[Mainstreet]

Lee with another big three.

 

[cheesebeef]

CP3 didn’t sound like he was coming back any time soon.

 

[Mainstreet]

CP3 didn’t sound like he was coming back any time soon.

Nothing encouraging for sure.
